Lyrics

Postcards

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

This guy could save the world with both hands behind his back

And still emerge with ten times the courage that others lack

I'm sick of wallowing here in my own self pity

Feet in the countryside, head in the city

Tall buildings bright lights bright cars,

But more importantly more importantly that's where you are

I'll send you postcards from my head,

Thinking bout you while my cheeks go red

You're not a ghost but you feel like one right now

But you can haunt me if you like

CHORUS

I need some help to complete this task,

Want you here beside me is that too much to ask?

I'm haunted here, without you dear,

I'll tell you this as I whisper in your ear and say,

There's always another day

Someone once said, that a story once told

That these streets these streets are paved with gold

But unless you're standing on them, or sitting on your thrown

They mean nothing to me, nothing to me, nothing but stone

Maybe you'll never know just how i feel,

Maybe you'll never know maybe thats the appeal

But walls look weird without you sitting on top

Never meant to start and now I can't stop

You're not a ghost but you feel like one right now

But you can haunt me if you like

I need some help to complete this task,

Want you here beside me is that too much to ask?

I'm haunted here, without you dear,

I'll tell you this as I whisper in your ear and say,

There's always another day

If you always go slow than you'll probably never fall

but if you never go fast than you'll never feel tall

If you always go slow than you'll never get hurt,

but if you never go fast you'll never feel on top of the world x2

You're not a ghost

But you can haunt me if you like

I need some help to complete this task,

Want you here beside me is that too much to ask?

I'm haunted here, without you dear,

I'll tell you this as I whisper in your ear and say,

There's always another day

This sounds like a love song but its not,

Cause in the end, the girl gets caught

And will they be together in the end

Well I wish I could tell you that my friend
